Summary

As Passed Both Chambers. Immobilization of vehicles.

Allows the owner or operator of a parking lot or other building to immobilize a trespassing vehicle by use of any device in a manner that prevents its removal or lawful operation, provided that the device used does not damage the vehicle. Current law limits immobilization devices to those, such as a boot, that prevent a vehicle from being moved by preventing a wheel from turning. The bill clarifies that the currently authorized use of a device by a locality to immobilize a vehicle against which there are outstanding parking violations in a manner that prevents its operation means in a manner that prevents its lawful operation.
